Transfer news: French eyeing move for Amalfitano

|

Morgan+Amalfitano+West+Ham+United+v+Liverpool+CswSINzPf6RlMorgan Amalfitano could soon be on his way out of Upton Park if reports in France linking him with St Etienne are correct.

The midfielder has been banned from Chadwell Heath by boss Slaven Bilic after missing a team meeting. And other alleged disciplinary offences have also been taken into account.

But there’s strong speculation that he is wanted across the channel and that the Hammers are keen to do a deal.

St Etinenne have been interested in the player for some time and his West Ham dilemma will presumably encourage them to move in.

Bilic  also said the former West Brom star “gave him attitude” and with St-Etienne are in desperate need of a winger after recently selling Max Gradel to Premier League new boys Bournemouth, see the former France international as a decent option.

    Get 2-3 million for Morgan and then add this money to the bid for Hernandez and go and get Austin. QPR are ready to do a deal and I think he would want to stay in London and join West Ham. Does Hernandez even want to come? and that is after United stop messing us about. All simple really!!!!! If only it was this simple in reality …..

  • bubs says:

    Get enough money for him and Jarvis and buy Moses
    Buy a forward any way
    If we can’t get Moses buy Fer off OPR we need another winger,

    Fer just failed a medical at sunderland.Do we want another possible sicknote,lol,anyway wetpants say sell amalifitano,so best do as they wish 😀

  • stuck on 99 forever says:

    Lmao,oh well,thats it,if the wise men want him out it is time we sold him,lol

  • bubs says:

    Remember when Ba failed his medical at Stoke 5 years on 4 different clubs hardly missed a game ?
    Just trying to think of a winger that is affordable with pace and can work with Payet,
    I like Redmond of Norwich but he will be above the £10 million

  • essexclarets says:

    No great loss

  • Ed the Hammer says:

    Shame. Classy player, but if he crosses the line, he has to go. Get the money in, give QPR what they want for Austin.

    • Roman says:

      Get Austin before it’s too late.Stuff Man United.Like Ritchie asks “does he really want to come?”

  • Bob The Iron says:

    Its ok saying flog him put we are a winger done now & if Payet gets injured we are left with an untried Lanzini.On his day Amalifitano can change a game.He has done it a few times for us.We should at least give him a chance to screw the nut & see if he is up to it.If he isnt then fire him out the door.

  • slaven a laugh says:

    He’s Been ok for us but he’s always struck me as a petulant sulky smacked arse kind of a fellow which might explain why he always ends up being loaned out by the clubs he’s with and if he’s upset dicks and the Croatian Mafia then it’s probably best he goes Or he might find himself in the Thames wearing a pair of concrete boots.

      ¨he’s always struck me as a petulant sulky smacked arse kind of a fellow¨ You meen French 🙂
